Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of unconventional reservoir oil and gas exploration, and in particular relates to a method and a device for identifying the type of filling medium of a horizontal well bypassing a shale reservoir. Background Art

[0002] In the exploration and development of oil and gas resources worldwide, the evaluation and analysis of geological information such as fractured mudstone, carbonate rock, and shale is one of the problems that need to be solved urgently in today's logging technology. In China, the proportion of fractured low-permeability reservoirs is very prominent, and the oil and gas production of fractured low-permeability reservoirs accounts for more than half of the total oil and gas production. Early exploration and development practices have shown that fractures are an important factor affecting the development effect of deep shale gas. On the one hand, fractures play a role in communicating oil and gas and increasing the permeability of reservoirs. On the other hand, fractures may cause casing deformation, pressure channeling and other accidents. Therefore, identifying and evaluating wellside fractures, especially fractures that pass through the wellbore, is of guiding significance for formulating reasonable development and production plans for unconventional reservoirs.

[0003] Morris et al. (1964) first studied the relationship between the amplitude of longitudinal and transverse waves and the width of fractures in acoustic logging data. Paillet (1980) discovered and studied the attenuation of shear waves at fractures in array acoustic logging data. Zlatev et al. (1988) used physical experiments to simulate the propagation of acoustic waves at fractures through the well, and pointed out that passing through fractures would greatly reduce the amplitude of shear waves. In the same year, physical experimental studies found that the attenuation of the amplitude of Stoneley waves increased with the increase of fracture width, and the attenuation of the amplitude of Stoneley waves was affected by the inclination of fractures. Hornby et al. (1989) assumed that the formation was rigid and derived the relationship between the reflection coefficient of Stoneley waves and the fracture width in the case of horizontal fractures and in the case of inclined fractures. Fan et al. (2013) and Li et al. (2019) studied the response of Stoneley waves to fractures through shock tube experiments.

[0004] The above research content mainly focuses on how to use borehole mode waves, such as the velocity and attenuation properties of direct P-waves and direct S-waves, to distinguish wellbore fractures. However, the types of filling media in horizontal wellbore fractures in shale reservoirs, especially the distinction between calcite solids and oil, gas, and water fluids, have not been involved.

[0062] Based on a large number of numerical simulations and physical experiments of fracture models near horizontal wells in shale reservoirs, the inventors have found certain rules to determine whether the fracture filling medium type is solid or fluid. Specifically, the inventors found that: if the filling medium type in the fracture is fluid (the fluid specifically refers to oil, natural gas or water), then the Stoneley wave fracture imaging map, Stoneley wave reflection amplitude curve, dipole shear wave fracture imaging map, and dipole shear wave reflection amplitude curve of the well will have the following characteristics: at a certain depth, the Stoneley wave fracture inclined phase axis and the dipole shear wave fracture inclined phase axis appear at the same time, and the corresponding reflection amplitudes of the two respond. If the filling medium type in the fracture is solid (the solid specifically refers to calcite, dolomite or mudstone), then the Stoneley wave fracture imaging map, Stoneley wave reflection amplitude curve, dipole shear wave fracture imaging map, and dipole shear wave reflection amplitude curve of the well will have the following characteristics: there is no Stoneley wave fracture inclined phase axis, and there is a dipole shear wave fracture inclined phase axis.

[0063] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0064] Embodiment 1

[0065] A method for identifying the filling medium type of fractures in horizontal wells in shale reservoirs, combined with Figure 1 As shown, steps S110-S150 are included, specifically:

[0066] Step S110, collecting array acoustic logging data of the target well, wherein the array acoustic logging data at least mainly includes the original waveform, gain curve and delay curve of the monopole array acoustic logging, and the original waveform, gain curve and delay curve of the dipole array acoustic logging.

[0067] In some embodiments, conventional logging data are also generally collected, and the conventional logging data at least includes a gamma curve.

[0068] Step S120, pre-processing the array acoustic logging data to obtain the waveform and time difference of the Stoneley wave and the waveform and time difference of the dipole shear wave.

[0069] The array acoustic logging data is subjected to curve preprocessing to obtain the Stoneley wave waveform, time difference and dipole shear wave waveform, time difference. In some embodiments, the arrival time of Stoneley wave and dipole shear wave is also obtained. The monopole array acoustic data preprocessing mainly includes gain recovery, delay recovery and bandpass filtering. First, gain recovery is performed, then delay recovery is performed, and finally bandpass filtering is performed. When collecting monopole array acoustic waveforms downhole, in order to ensure that the amplitude of the waveform is at the highest accuracy, automatic gain control is used during collection, so that the waveform amplitude is amplified from a decimal to an integer for easy storage and recording. Therefore, for the collected waveform, gain recovery must be performed first. The gain parameter AGN is shown in formula (1):

[0070] AGN=10 GN*0.05 (1)

[0071] Wherein, GN is the gain curve collected in step S110.

[0072] During gain recovery, the monopole array acoustic waveform is divided by AGN. During waveform acquisition, in order to reduce the storage volume of recorded data, the waveform data for a period of time before the arrival of the first wave is often not collected. The purpose of delay recovery is to fill zero before the zero moment of the monopole array acoustic waveform, so as to obtain waveform data at the accurate time. The purpose of bandpass filtering is to extract low-frequency Stoneley waves from the monopole waveform, and the frequency band range is usually selected from 600-3000Hz. Similarly, the preprocessing of dipole array acoustic wave data mainly includes gain recovery, delay recovery and bandpass filtering. The purpose of dipole array acoustic wave data preprocessing is to obtain dipole shear wave waveform data, and the frequency band range of the bandpass filter is selected as 3000-5500Hz. The conventional correlation method can be used to calculate the Stoneley wave time difference curve, arrival time curve, and dipole shear wave time difference curve and arrival time curve.

[0073] Step S130, performing noise suppression and imaging processing on the waveform of the Stoneley wave and the waveform of the dipole shear wave, respectively, to obtain a Stoneley wave crack imaging image and a dipole shear wave crack imaging image.

[0074] Specifically, Stoneley wave noise suppression mainly includes the use of FK filtering method to implement Stoneley wave direct wave suppression, thereby obtaining Stoneley wave reflection wave signals; Stoneley wave fracture imaging mainly uses the uplink and downlink wave separation method to process Stoneley wave reflection waves, thereby achieving the purpose of separating Stoneley wave uplink reflection waves from downlink reflection waves. Finally, a Stoneley wave fracture imaging image is obtained, with the left side showing the uplink reflection wave of the Stoneley wave, the middle showing the wellbore, and the right side showing the downlink reflection wave of the Stoneley wave.

[0075] Dipolar shear wave noise suppression mainly includes the use of FK filtering method to implement dipole shear wave direct wave suppression, thereby obtaining dipole shear wave reflection wave signals; dipole shear wave fracture imaging mainly uses the up-down wave separation method to process dipole shear wave reflection waves, thereby achieving the purpose of separating dipole shear wave up-down wave reflection waves from dipole shear wave down-down wave reflection waves. Finally, a dipole shear wave fracture imaging image is obtained, with dipole shear wave up-down wave reflection waves on the left, wellbore in the middle, and dipole shear wave down-down wave reflection waves on the right.

[0076] Combination Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, Figure 2 This is the Stoneley wave crack imaging image. Figure 3 This is a dipole shear wave crack imaging diagram. Figure 2In the figure, the first channel is the gamma curve channel, the second channel is the depth channel, the third channel is the Stoneley wave time difference, the fourth channel is the Stoneley wave arrival time curve, the fifth channel shows the original waveform of the monopole array acoustic wave, the sixth channel is the pre-processed Stoneley wave waveform, and the seventh channel is the Stoneley wave crack imaging map. Among them, the Stoneley wave time difference in the third channel and the Stoneley wave arrival time curve in the fourth channel are both curves calculated based on the Stoneley wave waveform using the time difference and arrival time extraction method. The seventh Stoneley wave crack imaging map is based on the sixth Stoneley wave waveform, and is an imaging map after direct wave suppression, multiple wave suppression, and uplink and downlink reflection wave separation processing. The left side of the figure shows the Stoneley wave uplink reflection wave, and the right side shows the Stoneley wave downlink reflection wave.

[0077] exist Figure 3 In the figure, the first channel is the gamma curve channel, the second channel is the depth channel, the third channel is the dipole shear wave time difference, the fourth channel is the dipole shear wave arrival time curve, the fifth channel shows the original waveform of the dipole array sound wave, the sixth channel is the pre-processed dipole shear wave waveform, and the seventh channel is the dipole shear wave crack imaging map. Among them, the dipole shear wave time difference in the third channel and the dipole shear wave arrival time curve in the fourth channel are both curves calculated based on the dipole shear wave waveform using the time difference and arrival time extraction method. This is an imaging image after direct wave suppression, multiple wave suppression, and uplink and downlink reflection wave separation processing based on the dipole shear wave waveform in the sixth channel. The left side of the figure shows the uplink reflection wave of the dipole shear wave, and the right side shows the downlink reflection wave of the dipole shear wave.

[0078] Step S140, calculating the Stoneley wave reflection amplitude based on the Stoneley wave fracture imaging image to obtain the Stoneley wave reflection amplitude curve of the well; calculating the dipole shear wave reflection amplitude based on the dipole shear wave fracture imaging image to obtain the dipole shear wave reflection amplitude curve of the well.

[0079] Specifically, Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the principle of using Stoneley wave or dipole shear wave imaging data to calculate the reflection amplitude. The horizontal axis represents time and the vertical axis represents depth. The straight line in the middle represents the wellbore, and some oblique lines represent the inclined phase axis of the fracture. Assuming that the intersection of the fracture and the wellbore is (t0,h0), if the coordinates of any point on the inclined phase axis representing the fracture are calculated (t1,h1), the relationship between the two is

[0080]

[0081] Therefore, if the time increment Δt is known, it is necessary to find its relationship with the depth increment Δh, so that the coordinates of any point on the tilted phase axis can be determined. Considering the logging process of the logging instrument and the position relationship between the sound source and the receiver in the logging instrument, the relationship between the two can be calculated as:

[0082]

[0083] Where VStoneley represents the Stoneley wave velocity, which is different from the Stoneley wave time difference D Stoneley The relationship is

[0084] V Stoneley =304800 / D Stoneley (4)

[0085] Where the unit of Stoneley wave time difference is μs / ft, and the unit of Stoneley wave velocity is m / s. Substituting equation (4) into equation (3), we can get the final relationship between and:

[0086]

[0087] Based on formula (5), the coordinates of all points on the through-well fracture passing through the depth h0 position can be calculated, and the amplitude values ​​of all points are further added to obtain the Stoneley wave reflection amplitude at the depth position h0. According to this calculation method, the Stoneley wave reflection amplitude at different depths is calculated in turn to obtain the Stoneley wave reflection amplitude curve of the well. Figure 5 As shown in the third track.

[0088] Because there is noise interference in the actual logging data, a threshold value needs to be set. If the value is lower than the threshold value, it is considered that there is no through-well fracture at this depth, and if the value exceeds the threshold value, there is a through-well fracture. Further statistics are made on the reflection amplitude peak value exceeding the threshold value, and its corresponding depth represents the true through-well fracture depth position, and the amplitude value is positively correlated with parameters such as the through-well fracture opening.

[0089] like Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the first track is the depth track, and the second track is the imaging result of Stoneley wave passing through the wellbore fracture. The left side is the Stoneley wave upward reflection wave, the middle vertical line represents the wellbore, and the right side is the Stoneley wave downward reflection wave. A set of inclined phase axes can be observed, which represents the wellbore fracture, and the depth of intersection with the wellbore is 5604m, which represents the depth of the fracture passing through the wellbore. Figure 4 The third track in the figure is the middle curve of the Stoneley wave reflection amplitude. By setting a threshold, the random noise interference can be eliminated and the Stoneley wave reflection amplitude representing the well fracture event can be obtained, such as Figure 5 As shown in the fourth track, the depth of the event in the figure represents the depth of the through-well fracture, and the amplitude value is positively correlated with parameters such as the through-well fracture opening.

[0090] Similarly, the dipole shear wave reflection amplitude curve of the well can be obtained by the above-mentioned similar method. Specifically, the coordinates of the intersection of the fracture and the wellbore (t0, h0) are obtained from the dipole shear wave fracture imaging map, and then the coordinates of the intersection of the fracture and the wellbore and the dipole shear wave time difference D are used. SThe coordinates of any point on the inclined phase axis of the fracture are obtained; then the amplitude values ​​of all points at the same depth h1 are added together to obtain the dipole shear wave reflection amplitude at the same depth; finally, the dipole shear wave reflection amplitudes at different depths are calculated in turn to obtain the dipole shear wave reflection amplitude curve of the well.

[0091] Using the intersection coordinates of the fracture and the wellbore, the dipole shear wave time difference D S Obtaining the coordinates of any point on the inclined phase axis of the crack includes calculating the coordinates (t1, h1) of any point on the inclined phase axis of the crack according to the following formula:

[0092]

[0093] Among them, t0 is the abscissa of the intersection of the fracture and the wellbore, representing time; h0 is the ordinate of the intersection of the fracture and the wellbore, representing depth; Δt is the known time increment, and the unknown depth increment Δh is obtained by the following formula:

[0094]

[0095] Among them, D S is the dipole shear wave time difference.

[0096] like Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 The first track is the depth track, and the second track is the imaging result of the dipole shear wave through the wellbore fracture. The left side is the dipole shear wave upward reflection wave, the middle vertical line represents the wellbore, and the right side is the dipole shear wave downward reflection wave. A set of inclined phase axes can be observed, which represents the through-well fracture, and the depth of intersection with the wellbore is 5604m, which represents the depth of the fracture through the wellbore. Figure 5 The third track is the middle curve of the dipole shear wave reflection amplitude. By setting a threshold, the random noise interference can be eliminated and the dipole shear wave reflection amplitude representing the wellbore fracture event can be obtained, such as Figure 6 As shown in the fourth track, the depth of the event in the figure represents the depth of the through-well fracture, and the amplitude value is positively correlated with parameters such as the through-well fracture opening.

[0097] Step S150, based on the Stoneley wave fracture imaging image and the reflection amplitude curve, the dipole shear wave fracture imaging image and the dipole shear wave reflection amplitude curve, the type of the filling medium of the wellbore fracture is determined.

[0098] Specifically, the Stoneley wave fracture imaging diagram and the Stoneley wave reflection amplitude curve marked with straight lines and the dipole shear wave fracture imaging diagram and the dipole shear wave reflection amplitude curve marked with straight lines are put together for comparative analysis. Based on the rules mentioned in the embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to determine whether the fracture filling medium type is solid or fluid. That is, if at a certain depth, the Stoneley wave fracture inclined phase axis and the dipole shear wave fracture inclined phase axis appear at the same time, and the corresponding reflection amplitudes of the two respond, it means that there is a through-well fracture at this depth, and the type of filling medium in the fracture is fluid. If at a certain depth, there is no Stoneley wave fracture inclined phase axis, but there is a dipole shear wave fracture inclined phase axis, it means that there is a through-well fracture at this depth, and the type of filling medium in the fracture is solid.

[0099] Combination Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, Figure 7 The second track is the Stoneley wave through-well fracture imaging image, and the third track is the Stoneley wave reflection amplitude. From it, we can observe the depth of 5604m. Both the Stoneley wave imaging image and the Stoneley wave reflection amplitude show that there is a through-well fracture at this location. Figure 7 The fourth track is a dipole shear wave through-well fracture imaging image, and the fifth track is a dipole shear wave reflection amplitude. It can be observed that at the same depth of 5604m, both the dipole shear wave imaging image and the dipole shear wave reflection amplitude show that there are through-well fractures at this location. Combining the numerical simulation of the horizontal wellside fracture model of shale reservoirs and the physical experimental simulation law, considering that both mode waves have through-well fracture responses at this depth, this shows that the fracture filling medium type at the above depth is fluid, which may be oil, natural gas or water.

[0100] Figure 8 The second track is the Stoneley wave through-well fracture imaging image, and the third track is the Stoneley wave reflection amplitude. From it, we can observe the position of 3723m depth. Both the Stoneley wave imaging image and the Stoneley wave reflection amplitude show that there is a through-well fracture at this position. Figure 8 The fourth track is the dipole shear wave through-well fracture imaging, and the fifth track is the dipole shear wave reflection amplitude, from which no through-well fracture signal can be observed. Combining the numerical simulation of the horizontal wellside fracture model of shale reservoirs and the physical experimental simulation law, considering that only Stoneley waves respond at a depth of 3723m, but not dipole shear waves, it is determined that the fracture filling medium type at this depth is solid, which may be calcite, dolomite or mud.

[0101] Based on numerical simulation and physical experiments of a large number of horizontal wellside fracture models in shale reservoirs, the present invention finds that array acoustic logging data can be used to identify the type of filling medium in wellside fractures, so that the Stoneley wave fracture imaging map and reflection amplitude curve, dipole shear wave fracture imaging map and dipole shear wave reflection amplitude curve of the target well to be identified are obtained respectively, and comparative analysis is performed to determine whether the filling medium type of wellside fractures is fluid or solid. The embodiment of the present invention can efficiently and accurately identify the filling medium type in the fracture as fluid or solid, overcoming the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0102] Embodiment 2

[0103] Correspondingly, the present invention also discloses a device for identifying the type of filling medium for a horizontal well bypassing a shale reservoir, such as Fig. 9 As shown, it includes a logging data collection module 10, a logging data preprocessing module 20, a fracture imaging module 30, a reflection amplitude curve generation module 40, and a recognition module 50, wherein:

[0104] The logging data collection module 10 is used to collect conventional logging data and array acoustic logging data of the target well, wherein the conventional logging data at least includes a gamma curve; the array acoustic logging data at least mainly includes a monopole array acoustic original waveform, a gain curve and a delay curve, and a dipole array acoustic logging original waveform, a gain curve and a delay curve.

[0105] The logging data preprocessing module 20 is used to preprocess the array acoustic logging data to obtain the waveform and time difference of the Stoneley wave and the waveform and time difference of the dipole shear wave.

[0106] The array acoustic logging data is subjected to curve preprocessing to obtain the Stoneley wave waveform, time difference and dipole shear wave waveform, time difference. The monopole array acoustic data preprocessing mainly includes gain recovery, delay recovery and bandpass filtering. First, gain recovery is performed, then delay recovery is performed, and finally bandpass filtering is performed. When collecting monopole array acoustic waveforms underground, in order to ensure that the amplitude of the waveform is at the highest accuracy, automatic gain control is used during collection, so that the waveform amplitude is amplified from a decimal to an integer for easy storage and recording. Therefore, for the collected waveform, gain recovery must be performed first. The gain parameter AGN is shown in formula (1):

[0107] AGN=10 GN*0.05 (1)

[0108] Among them, GN is the collected gain curve.

[0109] During gain recovery, the monopole array acoustic waveform is divided by AGN. During waveform acquisition, in order to reduce the storage volume of recorded data, the waveform data for a period of time before the arrival of the first wave is often not collected. The purpose of delay recovery is to fill zero before the zero moment of the monopole array acoustic waveform, so as to obtain waveform data at the accurate time. The purpose of bandpass filtering is to extract low-frequency Stoneley waves from the monopole waveform, and the frequency band range is usually selected from 600-3000Hz. Similarly, the preprocessing of dipole array acoustic wave data mainly includes gain recovery, delay recovery and bandpass filtering. The purpose of dipole array acoustic wave data preprocessing is to obtain dipole shear wave waveform data, and the frequency band range of the bandpass filter is selected as 3000-5500Hz. The conventional correlation method can be used to calculate the Stoneley wave time difference curve, arrival time curve, and dipole shear wave time difference curve and arrival time curve.

[0110] The crack imaging module 30 is used to perform noise suppression and imaging processing on the waveform of the Stoneley wave and the waveform of the dipole shear wave, respectively, to obtain a Stoneley wave crack imaging image and a dipole shear wave crack imaging image.

[0111] Specifically, Stoneley wave noise suppression mainly includes the use of FK filtering method to implement Stoneley wave direct wave suppression, thereby obtaining Stoneley wave reflection wave signals; Stoneley wave fracture imaging mainly uses the uplink and downlink wave separation method to process Stoneley wave reflection waves, thereby achieving the purpose of separating Stoneley wave uplink reflection waves from downlink reflection waves. Finally, a Stoneley wave fracture imaging image is obtained, with the left side showing the uplink reflection wave of the Stoneley wave, the middle showing the wellbore, and the right side showing the downlink reflection wave of the Stoneley wave.

[0112] Dipolar shear wave noise suppression mainly includes the use of FK filtering method to implement dipole shear wave direct wave suppression, thereby obtaining dipole shear wave reflection wave signals; dipole shear wave fracture imaging mainly uses the up-down wave separation method to process dipole shear wave reflection waves, thereby achieving the purpose of separating dipole shear wave up-down wave reflection waves from dipole shear wave down-down wave reflection waves. Finally, a dipole shear wave fracture imaging image is obtained, with dipole shear wave up-down wave reflection waves on the left, wellbore in the middle, and dipole shear wave down-down wave reflection waves on the right.

[0113] The reflection amplitude curve generating module 40 is used to calculate the Stoneley wave reflection amplitude based on the Stoneley wave fracture imaging image to obtain the Stoneley wave reflection amplitude curve of the well; calculate the dipole shear wave reflection wave amplitude based on the dipole shear wave fracture imaging image to obtain the dipole shear wave reflection amplitude curve of the well.

[0114] Specifically, Figure 4This is a schematic diagram of the principle of using Stoneley wave or dipole shear wave imaging data to calculate the reflection amplitude. The horizontal axis represents time and the vertical axis represents depth. The straight line in the middle represents the wellbore, and some oblique lines represent the inclined phase axis of the fracture. Assuming that the intersection of the fracture and the wellbore is (t0,h0), if the coordinates of any point on the inclined phase axis representing the fracture are calculated (t1,h1), the relationship between the two is

[0115]

[0116] Therefore, if Δt is known, its relationship with Δh needs to be found, and the coordinates of any point on the tilted phase axis can be determined. Considering the logging process of the logging instrument and the position relationship between the sound source and the receiver in the logging instrument, the relationship between the two can be calculated as:

[0117]

[0118] Where V Stoneley represents the Stoneley wave velocity, which is different from the Stoneley wave time difference D Stoneley The relationship is

[0119] V Stoneley =304800 / D Stoneley (4)

[0120] Where the unit of Stoneley wave time difference is μs / ft, and the unit of Stoneley wave velocity is m / s. Substituting equation (4) into equation (3), we can get the final relationship between and:

[0121]

[0122] Based on formula (5), the coordinates of all points on the through-well fracture passing through the depth h0 position can be calculated, and the amplitude values ​​of all points are further added to obtain the Stoneley wave reflection amplitude at the depth position h0. According to this calculation method, the Stoneley wave reflection amplitude at different depths is calculated in turn to obtain the Stoneley wave reflection amplitude curve of the well. Figure 5 As shown in the third track.

[0123] Because there is noise interference in the actual logging data, a threshold value needs to be set. If the value is lower than the threshold value, it is considered that there is no through-well fracture at this depth, and if the value exceeds the threshold value, there is a through-well fracture. Further statistics are made on the reflection amplitude peak value exceeding the threshold value, and its corresponding depth represents the true through-well fracture depth position, and the amplitude value is positively correlated with parameters such as the through-well fracture opening.

[0124] Similarly, the dipole shear wave reflection amplitude curve of the well can be obtained by the above-mentioned similar method. Specifically, the coordinates of the intersection of the fracture and the wellbore (t0, h0) are obtained from the dipole shear wave fracture imaging map, and then the coordinates of the intersection of the fracture and the wellbore and the dipole shear wave time difference D are used. SThe coordinates of any point on the inclined phase axis of the fracture are obtained; then the amplitude values ​​of all points at the same depth h1 are added together to obtain the dipole shear wave reflection amplitude at the same depth; finally, the dipole shear wave reflection amplitudes at different depths are calculated in turn to obtain the dipole shear wave reflection amplitude curve of the well.

[0125] Using the intersection coordinates of the fracture and the wellbore, the dipole shear wave time difference D S Obtaining the coordinates of any point on the inclined phase axis of the crack includes calculating the coordinates (t1, h1) of any point on the inclined phase axis of the crack according to the following formula:

[0126]

[0127] Among them, t0 is the abscissa of the intersection of the fracture and the wellbore, representing time; h0 is the ordinate of the intersection of the fracture and the wellbore, representing depth; Δt is the known time increment, and the unknown depth increment Δh is obtained by the following formula:

[0128]

[0129] Among them, D S is the dipole shear wave time difference.

[0130] The identification module 50 is used to identify the type of filling medium of the wellbore fracture based on the Stoneley wave fracture imaging image and the reflection amplitude curve, the dipole shear wave fracture imaging image and the dipole shear wave reflection amplitude curve.

[0131] Specifically, the Stoneley wave fracture imaging map, reflection amplitude curve, dipole shear wave fracture imaging map, and dipole shear wave reflection amplitude curve are compared and analyzed. If at a certain depth, the Stoneley wave fracture inclined phase axis and the dipole shear wave fracture inclined phase axis appear at the same time, and the corresponding reflection amplitudes of the two respond, it is judged that there is a through-well fracture at this depth, and the type of filling medium in the fracture is fluid; if at a certain depth, there is no Stoneley wave fracture inclined phase axis, but there is a dipole shear wave fracture inclined phase axis, it means that there is a through-well fracture at this deep position, and the type of filling medium in the fracture is solid.
